Atletico Madrid president, Enrique Cerezo has spoken on Joao Felix’s future at the club.
Felix is said to be unhappy at the club amid reports of fresh Premier League interest in him, this time from Manchester United.
The 23-year-old Portugal international spent the second-half of last season on loan with Chelsea.
He has since returned to Spain, only to discover that his shirt number has been given to Antoine Griezmann as his future appears uncertain.
The Portuguese cut a frustrated figure after he was made to train away from the first-team squad during Atletico’s first session back on Monday.
After the session, Felix held a tense conversation with Atletico’s sporting director, Andrea Berta, seemingly unhappy with his current situation.
Reports in Spain suggest that Manchester United, Newcastle United and Aston Villa have all made contact over a loan move this summer.
But Atletico president, Cerezo said, “We are happy to have a player of the quality of Joao Félix. Fortunately for us, he plays for Atlético.
“He is a player much loved by everyone. To this day and until the contrary is proven, he is an Atlético player for many seasons.”
